The vast majority of these voters could hardly (hmk‘ of going so far in voicing their | opposition as to vote Republican m, Novmeber. | There have been many predic~ tions of a rise in the South against | | Rooseveltian democracy, Senators | Glass and Byrd of Virginia, being | cited as samples, although both | have declared for Mr. Roosevelt.| Not enough anti-New Deal senti-| ment developed in South Carolina to justify the fears Byrnes reput-| edly held several months ago that he was in for a hard fight | The Mississippl situation is less | marked. It can be recalled, how- ever, that President Roosevelt. re- cently summoned Harrison to the | White House, and announced then | that no new taxes would be neces- | sary next year. | The gesture was widely inter-| preted as an effort to support Har-5 rison against the attack of his' colleague, Senator Bilbo, who was | supporting Conner. It would have | been looked upon by many as a| stinging rebuff to the administra-! tion if Harrison had been defeat- | ed. He wasn't. TRADE BOOM TEI-Ls GLURIES Our trade must really be boom- ing.

Coming north 33 years ago, Mr. Beymer, who studied in European art centers, was the first artist to mush in over the Broad Pass coufifry and sketch Mount McKin- {ley from the North He has since painted most of Al- aska's inspiring peaks, his work this summer being at Mount Nat- azhat and Mt. Logan. Mr. Bey- mer was commissioned to paint the latter mountain by Guy Lambert, of the Canadian Geodetic Survey, and the painting is to hang in Ot- fowa. Earlier this summer, the Al- askan artist, in a special letter to The Empire, told of the beauty of Mount Natazhat, comparing its peak to that of the Materhorn in Switzerland. Unsurpassed Scenery Filled with enthusiasm for the {“Elias Range Alpine country,” which he declares, is absolutely unsur- passed in scenery, he nevertheless found traveling in this unpopulated country extremely difficult. To reach the Wood Expedition base camp at Teepee Lake from White- horse Beymer was obliged to use three mediums, truck, lake steamer and pack horse. Flights in the expedition plane helped the artist greatly in obtain- ing sketches of the Canadian coun- try beyond the Alaskan border, and Mr. Beymer reports having obtained a full quota of oil paintings of the district, which was entirely new to him previous to this summer. During his stay in Juneau., Mr. Beymer is s{,upplng at the Gas- tineau Hotel. Philippine Army Is Plan-| ning Three Strategic Centers MANILA, P. I, Sept. 12—Philip- pine national army officials con- template the establishment of three strategic centers in the archipelago, each with 1,000 soldiers ond the necessary number of officers. Other centers will be opened as they are | needed. | The first three stations will be located at Camp Murphy, Risal Province, near Manila; at Cebu, and at Parang, in the Province of Cotabato. Camp Murphy is sufficiently close to Manila so that soldiers could be rushed into the city, if need be, in a short time. Cebu is a center of population in the Visayas, while Parang is the center of Mindanao | provinces. The latter center will be of great strategic military value in covering the southernmost islands. g *~e RIO DE JANEIRO, Sept. 12— Setsuzo Sawada, Japanese Amhns- sador to Brazl, told a Brazilian economic mission just before it sail- ed for this country that_he under- | stood Japan had bought 260,000 bales of Brazilian cotton through August this year.
